And finally, check out my new DALEY RANT video about the pointlessness of Downing Street petitions... Eyes right.

Meatime Brwon has said we are the best cprepared country in the world to resist swine flu.http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/iain_martin/blog/2009/04/28/swine_flu_brown_says_britain_best_prepared_to_cope_dont_all_rush_for_the_exits_at_once

Judging by the title, I thought I was going to disagree with your "Daily Rant" on petitions.... but I totally agree.

Petitions could be a force for good if used wisely.

I still hope the "Gordon Brown should resign" petition does very well, since Gordon Brown sits there with his fingers in his ears doing what the hell he likes, despite evidence he is making stupid mistakes.

I hope the petition gives him a big kick in the goolies.

P.S. You could do Rick Stein voice overs - do you have the same voice coach ;-)

The pointlessness f the petitions to 10 Downing Street was always obvious - but youcan have a giggle with "Nom de Plumes "It's the only laugh you'll get out of Brown unless you can do "a Hannan" and fillet him in public so that he daren't throw a wobbler !(I wonder what notes he was making when Hannan nailed him .... Dear Deidre, I don't have any friends)
